Death of Cumulus

Death of Cumulus

"then together we rise again at dawn." - avr

Dr Abe V Rotor

                              Death of Cumulus

Meet me early in the morning;

grow with me as the sun rises

reaching its zenith as I reach mine;

rest with me as the sun goes down,

glowing with the reddening sky,

and the passing of years - and mine.

But you are a young Sybil at dawn,

pure, rising, but into feathers die.

Would I ask Apollo to curtain the sun,

that you die on some parched land,

on dry river beds and empty lakes?

Then together we rise again at dawn. ~
